I found your layers quite insightful but just wondered you choose what layers to reveal? And why focus on the number nine? Its just that number has cropped up in a few blogs I've seen recently why not ten or twelve (that being said I often question the decimal scale as opposed to imperial I guess we have to choose some measure).

This blog explores another one of my many sides. It might be musings of the day and it's activities, revelations I've had, dreams, goals and aspirations, or just a revealing peek at another layer of Vixen.
